    Who would have won?

    I personally think Stevenson would have stopped Beterbiev. Quick, hard-hitting counterpunchers like Stevenson are a bad style matchup for come-forward fighters with poor defense like Beterbiev.

    Yeah, Adonis was a bad stylistic match up for Artur not to mention his power could easily hurt him too.
    But Adonis was a chinny guy, with Artur's power, aggression and pedigree you never know.

    You know how Stevenson recovered from his coma?

    Well, against Beterbiev he would either still be in one or drinking soup through a straw.....

    witch Adonis we talking about? The one from the gvodzyk fight? Cause if so beterbiev would of got him out of there within 6 rounds.

    look at how Adonis was having to trade on the inside with badou jack then imagine what would of happened if it was artur.

    Until Beterbiev loses I tend to think he is going to win, no matter the opponent. I could see him losing by getting outpointed but that hasn't happened yet and it would take a special performance to avoid Beterbiev's power for a full fight. Gvozdyk may have the ability to do this. We will soon find out. But if I were weighing the odds, I tend to think the greater probability is Beterbiev tracks down Gvozdyk rather than Gvozdyk putting on the perfect performance by avoiding Beterbiev's power for 12 rounds. It is what makes this such an interesting fight. Gvozdyk can do it, but it will be very tough.

    Beterbiev would stomp a mud hole in Adonis and walk it dry.

    That fight with Jack should've been his last. All the signs were there.

    Stylistically I actually think Stevenson would have been all wrong for Beterbiev.

    Stevenson by KO and early. Although an early KO victory for Beterbiev wouldn't shock me in the least either.

    Beterbiev has done nothing. For now, Stevenson.

    I agree with you. Stevenson got on my nerves at times because he held the belt hostage for so long. The man had skills and would have kept the fight on the outside. He was still pretty quick in the Gvodzyk fight and outboxed Gvodzyk at times. We all know how it ended but he fought a pretty good fight up for several rounds. I suspect he would have won rounds against AB but probably not the fight. AB 7th round KO.

    Stevenson at his best would probably win.
